Balancing frantic energy with melancholy reflection, Brooklyn’s Cold Wrecks deliver emotional catharsis with a delirious grin. On their sophomore LP ‘This Could Be Okay,’ Cold Wrecks find themselves looking both inward and forward, with songs about growing, coping, freaking out, and learning.

The band is the result of far-too-long-lasting friendships. Singer-songwriters Craig and Mike started playing in bands together in the tenth grade, with CJ joining up shortly after. A few years later, they became fast friends with Matan after sneaking him into a show their old band was playing, and the EP the four wrote together, ‘Tiny Refuge’ (re-released as Cold Wrecks in 2017) became the basis for their new project. Since the release of their 2016 debut album ‘Breaking’, they’ve kept themselves busy, releasing several EPs and singles, including their mental health manifesto “Therapy” (from 2017’s ‘Savannah’), and playing events such as The Fest in Gainesville FL and Pouzza Fest in Montreal.

Cold Wrecks’ top priority is to just like, make sure everyone is having a nice/safe/affirming/fun time, you know?
